Mandalorian
The most-liked Mandalorian helmet, shared by stevenmarx from TheBrokenNerd83's design, spells out its sizes: Small is printed at 84% and fits heads up to 52 cm around, Medium at 91% fits up to 54 cm, and Large at 100% fits up to 59 cm, with inside dimensions of 24 x 20 cm. The designer also notes that Large prints in six pieces, Medium in three and Small in one. GamerForge's full Mandalorian costume uses the same helmet and adds armor, a jetpack and a blaster, so it's the one to grab for a whole build.
For something different, a Helldiver Mandalorian mashup by ReProps should fit an average head, its designer says, and comes split for smaller printers.
Stormtroopers
KeepTheBOX has two of the top files: a full scale A New Hope Stormtrooper, whose neck opening measures 228 x 224 mm, and a screen-accurate First Order Stormtrooper whose 3MF files are set up for multicolor printing. WillDeVries's Shoretrooper is screen-accurate down to the interior, though its designer says they never got around to building one, so treat it as a project rather than a proven print.
Darth Vader
lecter's Wearable Darth Vader Helmet, a remix of Steen Winther's model, is the most-liked Vader you can wear. Carlos Slater's full size Darth Vader helmet is 1:1 scale and includes options for smaller printers.
Clone troopers
Christian remixed Killonious's clone helmets to be wearable: the Phase 2 and the Phase 1. Viridi's ARF clone trooper is life size in three parts, but its designer warns it was modeled for a small head, so check your measurements first.
Got a small printer?
These are already split for smaller beds: Christian's Phase 2 clone trooper comes split 3 or 6 ways as well as in one piece; a Phase 1 clone trooper remix by Slappinsecond is cut into 8 pieces for 200 x 200 mm beds; a Mandalorian split by Hugh_Flanders is cut to fit the Prusa Mini; a Rogue One shoretrooper by Jace1969 is split to fit a 200 x 200 mm bed. For anything else, the guide to splitting a big model covers where to cut and how to add connectors.
Before you print
- Size it to your head. The helmet size calculator works out the scale from your head's width and length, with room for padding.
- Check your printer. A full helmet rarely fits a small bed in one piece; the printer guide compares bed sizes.
- Plan the finish. Stormtrooper white shows every layer line, so budget time for filler primer and sanding: the finishing guide walks through it, and the weathering guide covers battle damage for clones and shoretroopers.
- Make it wearable. A helmet padding kit and a visor finish the job; the padding guide shows how.
Not for wearing: the most-liked of all
The single most-liked Star Wars helmet file in our library isn't wearable: it's a Stormtrooper helmet sculpt on a pedestal by Eastman, with 5,329 likes. Desk pieces make quick gifts: a Stormtrooper helmet planter by CalebTimoteo, who has made Vader, clone and Boba Fett planters too, and a Mandalorian helmet piggy bank.
Display it, or build one in bricks
A finished helmet deserves a clear helmet stand or an acrylic helmet case, which its listing says fits most helmets. For a Star Wars fan who doesn't print, LEGO makes buildable helmets too: the Mandalorian Helmet 75328, the Boba Fett Helmet 75277 (625 pieces) and the AT-RT Driver Helmet 75458 (775 pieces), which has its own fitted display case. The display guide has more.
The full list of files, with every designer, is in the PropBuilds Star Wars print library.
